My brother John has had surgery today. His left leg has been amputated near the knee (in hopes what's left he'll be able to use a prostetic leg), PLUS - they amputated his right foot up to the ankle! Infection would've set in otherwise!!

He's been under medically induced "unconscious state" because of the pain, so WHEN they awaken him......he'll be left to look at parts of his body not there anymore & BEGIN A NEW LIFE! He still has his arms & fingers which will help ALOT!

PLEASE PRAY THAT HE'LL BE ABLE TO DEAL WITH ALL THIS, AND SO WILL HIS FIANCE'! OUR WHOLE FAMILY IS SO WORRIED ABOUT HER AS MUCH AS JOHN RIGHT NOW. IT'LL BE A REALLY LONG ROAD AHEAD FOR ALL OF US! "-(
